Small things with great love♥

As the Christmas selling season raps up in the next few days, I'm looking forward to not so many trips to the post office. I am not complaining, no way! I still am giddy over each and every sale I make. I look forward to Christmas brake. Where daily grind routines come to a halt such as post office, gym, kids to school etc..The husband will be off and we can all enjoy each other and our Christmas time. I am feeling so thankful for my family and hug and kiss them so often enjoying all my moments with them.
I love the idea of stitching a little quote or mantra on to a vintage doily. Some thing to have out and remind you of what is important or maybe something that inspires you! I did this little project a while back.

First you sketch out your quote or mantra on to plain paper.

Flip your paper and trace your words with a sulky transfer pen.

Flip your saying right side up again, center it on your doily and iron.
